A shoe that you buy once.

most boots get so f***n hot in the warmer weather. I use regular workboots. Bought some harley boots for the look (poser) but my cheapo's are really better.

I like my Red Wing boots. They're waterproof, have thicker leather uppers and better construction than most everything I've seen.

Someday I'll have to replace my 25 year old Chippewas, with another pair of USA made Chippewas. I'm getting close to getting them re-soled again. Gotta watch out, though, they have a Chinese made lineup now, too.

My next pair will be Chippewas because they are made here in the USA.

I bought a pair of Red Wings because their website talks about the history and tradition and Red Wing, MN, etc. Well, I got them and there is the big label - MADE IN CHINA.

You might take a look at the Wolverine boots....I have extra wide feet and they are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn.....I also have a pair with composite toe which are much lighter than steel toes.....they are not pricey at all.....one site that I have used that has great service.... http://workingperson.com/products/22...FZxS2godrgkqkg

Wolverine and Redwing are both farming production out to china now (at least for some of their boots). I have not heard that about Chippewa until now. Are you sure that's true? Any source for that info?

+1 I don't usually buy a lot of HD stuff, but their "Hawkins" water proof are the most comfortable boots I've ever worn and my feet are in bad shape to begin with.

I wear my sons old combat boots from the army. Great ankle suport with laces and great traction. Very comfortable. I will go to the army navy store when I need a new pair, like $ 70.00
